Windows 7 64-bit freezing for 3-5 seconds

My computer recently started freezing for 3-5 seconds at random times. For example, while i am typing this it is happening.

It will also freeze more frequently when I am playing games for the same amount of time. It never fully freezes, only for a short period of time.

I recently restored my computer with the restore disc thinking it could be a virus, but it still freezes even after all of that. Could this possibly be cause by a part inside of the computer being loose? I travel often and this computer could have easily been dropped by someone or banged against something.

I dont know if this means anything, but while it freezes i can still move the mouse cursor around, but everything else stops and i cant click anything.

Take it back to the worthless Geeks and have them troubleshoot it for the problem. They are sales people and not real techs, and you can tell them so, after they try to charge you $250 for this service

They tried that and failed. it was 70 for the trouble shoot and they didnt even find the problem. i had to suggest it was the RAM chip and thats the only reason they found the problem.
